Item Detail

Marie Menzikof et Fédor Dolgorouki. Histoire russe, en forme de lettres.

Lafontaine, August Heinrich Julius, 1758-1831

Paris: Gosset , 1804

This book is translated by Isabelle de Montolieu of Switzerland into French from the original German. The work is a fiction concocted by an incredibly prolific German writer, who reached crowds of readers with his fictional writing. He wrote seemingly endless rows of sentimental novels, pseudo-historical novels, and novels in contemporary setting. Among his early admirers were the Prussian king and queen, Johann Gottfired Herder, and Christoph Wieland.

Spine loose.
